Nadia Mackenzie , BACP, NCPS

Nadia Mackenzie is a fully qualified London-based therapist with five years of professional experience who combines established therapy models with a warm, relational style. She is a member of the BACP (British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy) and the NCPS (a national counselling and psychotherapy body), reflecting her commitment to professional standards and ethical practice. Nadia's training spans psychodynamic, person-centred or humanistic theories, and cognitive behavioural therapy, and she tailors these approaches to meet each client's unique needs.

Nadia understands that taking the first step towards therapy can feel daunting, so she focuses on building trust and working at a pace that feels comfortable. She works relationally and collaborates with clients to explore feelings, identify difficulties, and develop practical coping strategies. Her client-centred stance supports people in discovering their own solutions while psychodynamic insights can help uncover patterns that may be holding them back.

Many people come to Nadia seeking help with anxiety, stress, depression, low self-esteem, family and relationship difficulties, workplace or college pressures, or bereavement and loss. She aims to offer a compassionate, non-judgmental space where clients can feel listened to and supported as they work through challenges. Nadia's goal is to help clients gain clearer self-understanding, expand their coping resources, and open up new possibilities for more positive connections with themselves and others.

How therapeutic approaches meet online support

Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape current ways of relating and helps people understand patterns around trust, abandonment, and closeness. It can be useful for relationship struggles and longstanding attachment concerns. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes empathy, acceptance, and the client’s own capacity for growth; it supports people who want a collaborative, non-directive space to explore feelings and choices. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, offering practical tools for managing anxiety, low mood, and day-to-day stressors.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Nadia works collaboratively with clients to choose and adapt methods that fit their needs, goals, and preferences, reviewing progress and adjusting the plan as therapy unfolds. This helps ensure work stays relevant and manageable for each person.

Online therapy offers flexible ways to engage - through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging - so people can access support from home or on the go. These options make it easier to schedule sessions around work, family, or other commitments and allow continuity of care when in-person meetings are not possible, while still maintaining a clear and focused therapeutic relationship.
